Editorial Reviews
Product Description
"Swedish they might be, but there's nothing about Logh that echoes their more famous countrymen such as The Hives, The Cardigans, or the Gothenburg crew. To use the word ‘unique' would be exaggerating, yet no other description better suits The Raging Sun and the way it conveys Scandinavian snowed-in turmoil without ever leaning on other Swedish shoulders." - Lollipop
Logh's debut was praised and cherished for its solemn poetic nature all over the world, and by early 2003 the time had come to record the follow-up. The band spent close to two full months wrestling with a strange collection of songs. Almost an entire album was recorded, erased and re-recorded; members got sick, better and sick again. The darkness refused to let go until John Congleton (The Paper Chase, producer and engineer of The 90 Day Men and Erykah Badu) arrived. In six days, the chaos was structured and the wonderful The Raging Sun was finally completed. The album is nothing short of a keyed-down miracle. Totally cleansed from any glances in any other direction than their own, Logh evokes huge cinematic soundscapes colored with solemn beauty. The Raging Sun continues where their debut left off, but exists in an entirely different universe - by all definitions a fantastic album that hides something special, waiting to be uncovered.

Customer Reviews:
A Comic-Opera Treasure!.......2007-01-28
Dittersdorf is a sort of working-man's Mozart; in fact, this opera sounds similar to some of Mozart's early operas. But Mozart sought to break the rules and to explore new musical ideas; Dittersdorf is not an innovator...yet he is no less a master! This performance, too, is a materpiece of refined (not always!) comedy; the arias include some extremely difficult vocal leaps and trills, yet the primary joy is the witty verse. W.H. Auden (no less!) ramrodded this translation to English. And Anna Russell, famed for her "Analysis of Wagner's Ring Cycle" steals every scene she's in! Ad-libbing shamelessly, her introductory aria, all by itself, is worth more than the purchase price!
an obscure delight!.......2002-07-31
Eleanor Steber's image on the cover of this set caught my eye while rummaging through the cut-out bins of San Francisco on a recent opera whirlwind. What a lost treasure this performance is - recorded "LIVE" in NYC 1965! All the principles shine, their energy ebullient. Don't hesitate, buy it and smile before it disappears.

follow up.......2003-12-14
Oops, sorry, forgot about the soloists. John Aler has a brighter tenor sound, not as dark as Robert Tear, but the way he handles the recitative text is very similar. Both he an John Ostendorf are a little heavy on the vibrato for my taste, but their diction is not that much skewed by it. J. Ostendorf is a heavy, rich bass, which is striking when you first hear it against Aler's brighter lyric voice. It almost seems wooly, but he steers it away from any Wagnerian tendancies to create a striking bu handsome compliment. Baird is gorgeous- it's that simple. She is not my favorite, but she comes real close. With a voice reminiscent of Emma Kirkby and expression along the lines of Janet Baker, it's a refreshing treat among all these increasing Helden-Sopranos who think that baroque music gives them an excuse to through all delicacy out the window. Over all, this recording is more of a 4 1/2, and I think the most well balanced one may come across.
diamond in rough.......2003-12-14
The conductor may be no Raymond Leppard, but he's preferable by a great stretch than some of these other "new baroque" recordings out there where everything is a forte marcato allegretto. He maintains the baroque atmosphere, much like Harnoncourt's sound (is this he? I don't know who the conductor is). The chorus also has the baroque sound, but my goodness! Thank God for a chorus with proper vowels and a nice sound! Much better than some Deutsche Grammaphon choruses I've heard. If you like the Monteverdi Choir with Gardiner, you'd probably like this chorus as well (I myself am a choister and soloist specializing in oratorio and other such sacred music).
An occasional Haendel........1999-10-26
The enclosed booklet is too poor. The singers are only good (the best is the soprano). Only good also the conductor . In this way this Haendel's work seems a minor one. Is really so?
